    I am getting tired of the left's "terrorist attacks" and "hostage taking" comments. I despise the left. Those on the left are dishonest, reprehensible thieves, and cowards. You are herd animals which may be why you all bleat exactly the same things in the same way day after day after day.

    The monuments were closed because of the shutdown. That is Congress's fault, not the President.

    Riiight. The Republicans only want the Democrats to give them everything they want and the Democrats are being unreasonable by not letting them have it...

    No wonder the GOP has moved so far to the extreme right. It's constituents apparently can't think for themselves and have lost the ability to even identify what is reasonable and what isn't. I think this is the same way that suicide bombers are created.

    Eerily reminiscent of those who are "tired of being called a racist."

    note the bolded portion of my posts.

    so like I said, I didn't.

    I suggest you write your congressman then and tell him/her to demand a clean vote in the house. Because the GOP is currently holding America hostage because they lost the last 2 elections and can't achieve their goals via legitimate means.

    They're there because the President ordered them there to keep the "People" out. That did not include the illegal aliens sent by the President to demonstrate at the mall. They were welcomed by Nancy Pelosi representing Hussein not the people.

    Did you not get the memo? The idiotic charge does not work any more. You used it too often and you used it when it clearly did not apply. You also failed to use it when it did apply. You guys on the Left please keep using your playbook. Most of us see you for the tools you are.

    Anyone who would try to deceive others into believing they are veterans of the U.S. military aren't worthy to berate others.

    Dude you were pwned.

    Accept it.


    Or at least stop using "nope" as your usual defense.

    Actually, I want to encourage your Dear Leader to keep the government shut down. I have warmed to the idea. In fact, I believe more of it should be shut down. I have a list of nearly 500 independent agencies we should shut down. Completely.

    The government, partially shut down is doing less damage to the people and to our economy. I think we should furlough all of the people who spy on American citizens in this country. I think the entire EPA could be sent home. Education does nothing useful. Send them home. Denationalize student loans. There is no reason for the federal government to be in the student loan business. It is unconstitutional. So send loans back to the banks. Send the busybody bureaucrats home. Permanently.

    This is a great idea. Please encourage your Dear Leader to keep his nose held high in the air and let's keep this government shut down.

    Not really.
    He had actual substance behind his complaint.

    He's in favor of it too... and not just for being the one to do it in the first place, but....

    "A senior White House official told the Wall Street Journal that the administration doesn't really care when the shutdown ends because they're "winning" the PR fight against the GOP"

    It's always been about PR for him.

    "How does it make Obama a tyrant to have security on public landmarks when they are closed?"

    Taxcutter says:
    Neither Carter nor The Impeached One - both had government shutdowns during their administrations - closed the national parks. What aggravates the sensibilities is excluding US veterans from the parks while tolerating a political rally of at-large felons (illegal aliens.)

    Arbitrary and capricious use of government assets is a hallmark of tyranny.

    Yep, perfectly sums up the GOP position. Keep americans out of work, and further damage the economy.

    brilliant!

    Witholding funding of Obamacare is not giving them "everything they want".

    Congress offered funding to keep all of government open, with the exception of funding for Obamacare. Senate wouldnt even vote on it and Obama has vowed to veto it if they did.

    Perhaps it is largely the Un-Americans who are being kept away from their busybody bureaucratic jobs. Have we seen any damage to the economy? Will the damage be greater than they would have caused by the busybody bureaucrats being busy harming the wealth creators?

    Interesting that I have now sided with you that Dear Leader should continue to refuse to negotiate you oppose my, uh, your, position.

    Great! I strongly support your effort to keep Dear Leader from negotiating an end to the Senate Democrats' government shut down. Please ask him to close even more. EPA, Education, the NSA spies who are spying on Americans in America...I see more options for Dear Leader.
